"Large property on the Lakeside. Lots of restaurants and facilities. Overall great stay with location suitable to walk to attractions or cheap tuk tuk from front of hotel. Only issue was the taxi quoted to airport was US73 vs US18 using uber. Needs to adjust the price now that everyone can see the uber costs to get anywhere. Otherwise enjoyed the stay."

8/10 Good
"The hotel, is good overall. It is a place where you can relax, eat, get pampered and shop! The following two areas need attention to make it perfect. 1. The open event area just on the side of the reception got very loud on one of the nights That I was at the hotel. My room was on level 3 and i could not get any sleep due to the loud noise. I had to call the reception to get the noise down. 2. Checking in the afternoon of 17 July 2026 was slow probably because the guest who was in the line before me had a lot of questions, and the reception was serviced by a single staff member. Overall, it is a very good hotel with all the 5-star facilities and a shopping mall just next door. SJ, New Zealand"

"It was difficult to find the property, the security guards at the entrance to the building it is in had not heard of Skyline and when we showed them the map to explain it was where we were, they were confused! Eventually we rang the owner who spoke to reception and realised it was there, they hadn’t heard of the company name! A half hour panic ended and we then enjoyed our stay!"
